Advanced hobbyists who are looking for a semi-acoustic version of the unmistakable Gretsch sound would do well to take a look at the Gretsch G5422DC-12. This hollow-body guitar from the popular Electromatic series combines a stylish Sunburst design with the sparkle of twelve strings and that characteristic Gretsch twang. Two special Black Top Filter'Tron pickups add a great edge to the feisty sound of the G5422DC-12.
Gretsch G5422-DC12: full and clear sound with an edge
Like any 12-string guitar, the G5422-DC12 produces a pleasantly rich sound, which receives an additional boost from the guitar's two Filter'Trons. These pickups offer a high output and produce a round, clear sound with a tasty edge. They are particularly suited for music genres such as jazz, country and rock 'n' roll, providing pleasantly warm as well as feisty sharp sounds, or even a delectable distortion once you turn up the gain.
Special features
The body, the graceful f-shaped sound holes and the maple neck of the Gretsch G5422 DC 12 are fitted with elegant bindings. Tasteful chrome-plated hardware and a silver-coloured pickguard adorn the Sunburst body of the guitar, and the rosewood fingerboard is fitted with hump block position markers. An Adjusto-Matic bridge allows for accurate intonation and a double cutaway enables you to effortlessly reach the highest frets.
